I really only knew about this band because of their tenuous connection to Adrian Sherwood. He helped out on their Tank album in the mid 2000's. I like the album. So I looked up some other things they did. I have to first say I do love South Asian music. I love Bhangra music and Bollywood. This is not that. Perhaps it's partially inspired by it, but it's not that. They rap, they are electronic, they are dancehall, they are Asian. They are from England. And lo and behold, they did a track with Sinead O'Connor. I had no idea. Anyway this is my pick of their tracks. I have no idea what their fans may like, or what made it to charts (if any). Just songs I liked from the albums I picked up. I purposely left out the Chuck D stuff. I didn't really quite like it. But, if you are a fan, let me know if I missed something else that I shouldn't have. If you are new to them, hopefully you get an appreciation for their stuff.
